I'm waiting for a computer that will run solely on verbal commands. I know they have prototypes in the works, but just think what they'll have in ten or fifteen years. That's actually the reason I won't knock myself out learning how to use this thing. I can always explain to an employee what I want the result to be, even if I have no idea how they're going to do it. I've resigned myself to the fact that my computer skills are always going to be sup-par, but that doesn't mean I can't figure out how to earn money using one. I designed my website, (the content, not the layout) and it's gotten good reviews. Plus, if anyone should happen to want to know the most efficient way to rate melons, I'm their guy.

They have some pretty good systems right now that work on voice recognition(too lazy to find links).
And in 10 or 15 years we'll also be driving flying cars and living in colonies on the moon
Well for someone with sub-par computer skills you do pretty well. It's just different stuff that everyone is naturally good at. I look at the guys doing my renovations at home right now. It's incredible how fast and good they work. I could do the work too but it would take me a month to do what they do in 3 days and they do a better job with less swearing.

I'm surprised you haven't hired someone to do that for you too

I just finished a book,"Stumbling on Happiness" that explains why we suck so bad at predicting the future. The author, Daniel Gilbert, is a Harvard Psychologist so it's not just bs and fluff, this guy knows his stuff. I'd have to say it's the most interesting book I've read in the last 5 years.

Yeah, but's probably the only book you've read in the past 5 years.

I assume the book relates to my post in some way?

I'd say that knowing how this board operates, it's safer to assume the book does NOT related to your post in some way.
